  • Page 8: Safety Precautions

    SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The S-23H has been designed to give years of reliable service. It is essential that operators be alerted to the safe operation of this saw, and the practices to avoid that could lead to injury. The following safety rules are at the minimum necessary for the safe installation, operation, and maintenance of the saw.

    Coolant to the container. Coolant Return (Shown with tank removed) HYDRAULIC OIL The S-23H option is supplied with Texaco Rando HD46 hydraulic oil. Substitutes should be a #46 hydraulic oil. The power pack and tank is Hydraulic tank mounted on the inside of the door found at the idler filler cap is side of the infeed table.

  • Page 11: Speed Adjustor Installation

    SPEED ADJUSTOR INSTALLATION The speed adjustor is packaged seperately for shipping purpose and must be installed prior to connecting the power supply. Failure to do so will cause a safety hazard. Refer to page 6.2 for installation instructions. POWER WIRING CONNECTIONS When the machine has been anchored and levelled the power hook-up is the last installation step.

    SECTION 2, CONTROL CONSOLE OPERATOR CONTROL PANEL The operator control panel provides the operator with all the controls necessary to operate the saw after the cutting angle has been set and the stock has been loaded and secured. All of the electrical functions are operated from the control panel.

  • Page 15: Blade Basics

    BLADE BASICS Technology is rapidly changing all aspects of production machining. Metal cutoff is no exception. The advances made in the bandsaw blade industry have definitely brought down the cost per cut, despite the three fold higher price of the newer technology blades. Variable pitch (see Pg 2.3), bi-metal blades (like the 3/4 or 4/6 bi-metal blade supplied with the machine) last much longer, cut faster, and more accurately than the convention- al carbon steel blades.

  • Page 16: Determine Optimum Blade Pitch

    DETERMINE OPTIMUM BLADE PITCH - TEETH PER INCH (T.P.I.) Selecting a blade with proper tooth pitch is important in order to achieve optimal cutting rates and good blade life. For cutting narrow or thin wall structural materials a fine, blade with many teeth per inch (T.P.I.) is recommended.

  • Page 17: Blade Speed Adjustment

    BLADE SPEED ADJUSTMENT Blade speed can be adjusted infinitely between 75 to 350 SFM (Surface Feet/Minute) (23 to 106 m/min). Adjustment should be made only when the blade is running. Clockwise rotation of the knob increases blade speed while counter clockwise rotation decreases blade speed. It is recommended to occasionally run the speed adjustor through it’s full range.

  • Page 18: Guide Arm Positioning

    GUIDE ARM POSITIONING The S-23 guide arms are adjustable to accommodate varying material widths. The guide arms should be adjusted as close to the material width as possible while still allowing the material to pass between them. This process of matching Guide Arm Handles the guide arm spacing to the material size is important to optimize blade life.

  • Page 22: Blade Changing Procedure

    SECTION 3, MAINTENANCE and TROUBLESHOOTING BLADE CHANGING PROCEDURE NOTE: Wear gloves for protection from the sharp blade. 1. Open the Idler Wheel and Drive Wheel doors and swing the head to 45 degrees as this will make it easier to grip the blade closer to both wheels. 2.

  • Page 23: Blade Tracking Adjustment

    BLADE CHANGING PROCEDURE, Continued 5. Before installing the new blade, check that it measures 1.345" wide including the teeth. Some blade manufacturers supply blades that measure 1.25" including the teeth. In this case you may not be able to adjust the head down limit switch to complete the cut. 6.

    BLADE TRACKING ADJUSTMENT, CONTINUED 10B. Drive Wheel Adjustment. -- On the wall behind the drive wheel are two adjusting bolt assemblies and two hex bolts. Loosen all four of them with a 3/4" socket and turn the larger hex head bolts 1/4 turn with a 1 1/8" socket and extension and then tighten the two bolts in the assemblies, then tighten the two hex bolts at the left.

  • Page 25: Drive Belt Replacement

    ANGLE BRAKE ADJUSTMENT The clamping force on the swivel brake can be adjusted to ensure that the Head is held securely and does not move during cutting. The brake handle should be adjusted so that it does not "bottom out" or hit it's movement limit, yet holds the head securely.

  • Page 26: Lubrication

    LUBRICATION The S-23 was designed to minimize the maintenance requirements. Moving assemblies and contact faces need lubrication on a regular schedule which would depend on the frequency of use. The lubrication requirements of the S-23 are primarily the saw pivot points which are equipped with grease fittings and metal to metal surfaces ( S ) that require lubrication to prevent wear and seizure, as shown on this page and page.
